Description: | Awarded to two students entering the Gateway Program at Âé¶¹´«Ã½ (formerly known as the Transitions Program). Awards are based on financial need, and potentially renewable for one year based on available funding. |
Background: | This bursary was established through a generous donation by Francis Lefaivre, a resident of Calgary, Alberta, at the Âé¶¹´«Ã½ to support worthy applicants entering the Transition Program at Âé¶¹´«Ã½. The bursary is created in memory of his mother, Eugenie Ann Pineau, who graduated in 1909 from Prince of Wales College, one of Âé¶¹´«Ã½'s predecessor institutions. Miss Pineau successfully pursued her education under very difficult financial circumstances. Immediately after graduating, she migrated to Alberta where she became a life-long educator along with raising a family of five children. |
